Two-color analysis of the expression of CD40 on mouse and rat spleen cells. BALB/c mouse splenocytes were simultaneously stained with PE-conjugated anti-mouse CD5 mAb 53-7.3 (Cat. No. 553022/553023) and FITC-conjugated mAb HM40-3 (left panel). LOU rat splenocytes were simultaneously stained with PE-conjugated anti-rat CD5 mAb OX-19 (Cat. No. 554851) and FITC-conjugated mAb HM40-3 (right panel). Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACScan™ flow cytometry system.

The HM40-3 antibody reacts with CD40, a 40-50-kDa glycoprotein expressed on B lymphocytes and other antigen-presenting cells. The CD40 molecule has a central role in B-cell growth and differentiation. Furthermore, interactions of CD40 with its ligand, CD154, are involved in the initiation and effector stages of cell-mediated immune responses. CD40 may be involved in the triggering of NK cells and NK-T cells. Soluble HM40-3 antibody stimulates splenic and peritoneal B cells to proliferate in vitro. This antibody also induces spleen B cells to express the costimulatory molecules CD80 (B7-1) and CD86 (B7-2). HM40-3 mAb has been demonstrated to inhibit the binding of soluble CD154 (gp39, CD40 Ligand) to soluble CD40 and to cell-surface CD40. This hamster mAb to a mouse leukocyte antigen has been observed to cross-react with similar populations of Lewis, Sprague-Dawley, and LOU16 rat leukocytes.
